My daughter and some of her friends decided they wanted to go to Chicago over spring break last year. They thought the train sounded like a fun way to get there. After 22 hours to get from Dallas to Chicago, they all cashed in their return ticket and flew home. She said it was the most miserable trip she'd ever taken.
European and Japanese rail systems are a great way to get around, but AMTRAK in the midwest is a joke. Gary Thompson Georgetown, TX 1995 E320 On 3/12/07, Gary Hurst <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
you are making me want to go somewhere by train! last time i went anywhere was like 20 years ago, from san jose, ca to seattle. i kind of enjoyed it . they had some kind of very cheap promo deal on that train from los angeles, so we played lots of different card and tile games with people from the hood we would never meet otherwise. i didn't like sleeping in the seat though. i think if i had some kind of sleeper car, the trip would have been just grand.
